I never saw the point of spending $100 for something that is so limited. 
  You can spend a little more and get something like an ALIX board that 
is so much more capable and still fanless/low power.

The 2d3/2d13 are very nice for the price.

If you really want to run on a small router like this, the Netgear 
WNR3500 is a decent device and can be found for around $90.
